Jennifer Carpenter is set to return to “Dexter” in Showtime’s limited-series revival, a person with knowledge of the plans confirmed to TheWrap. Her character, serial killer Dexter Morgan’s sister Deb, was killed off in the 2013 series finale, which was pretty widely panned.
Showtime declined to comment on this story.
As previously reported, titular star Michael C. Hall is also on board for the show’s return. (Let’s face it, there was no coming back without him.) As is Clyde Phillips, who will return as showrunner for the 10-episode return, which is tentatively set to premiere this fall.
Phillips ran the eight-season show through its first four seasons.
